Problem is software engineers are replaced with juniors/contractors that probably do not know any better and are only one part of a system that has failed in its entirety. What sane person would willingly put up code that can kill othe

The software engineers job is also to think about what happens in corner cases. What if sensor malfunctions?, how should software act?, will it crash the plane? If yes, then raise problem and refuse to implement / avoid killing people.

It's hard to see China (or anyone else) using nuclear weapons without similar response or worse. So they would go from attempting to conquer a new piece of land via conventional war that they can withdraw from at any point if losing to

that's just a poor implementation, can you name what type of car? As for lane assist, that's not a safety feature and I'm also quite weary of it

I wouldn't dismiss the safety feature a modern car has, you never know when you might need them. Features like auto braking system are incredible. I know someone where this saved a kids life (kid ran on the road from between cars right
